Pregnant Paws Program 

Zero 2 Five Markets are working together with the Animal Welfare League Qld.  Why?  Because the AWL have an important message to new families. Families all too often surrender their companion animals to pounds and refuges because they are expecting, or have recently welcomed, a new baby in their home. AWL believes that many of these families may have reconsidered their decision to give up their animals if only they had had access to quality information about keeping both their babies and animals safe in the home.  

The Pregnant Paws program was therefore developed to encourage pet owners to take a ‘pregnant pause' and become informed before making the decision to give up their animals due to pregnancy or a new baby in the family. The program may be accessed in a variety of ways; through our Pregnant Paws Guide, by inviting one of our Education Officers to Guest Speak at your antenatal class or by attending one of our Pregnant Paws Workshops.

The Pregnant Paws Guide is an information booklet that gives tips on how people can prepare their animals for the arrival of a new baby, keep their newborn babies safe around their cats and dogs, as well as pet safety for pregnant mums with their companion animals. It also highlights the benefits of animal companions for pregnant women and babies and gives advice on how to nurture and develop the relationship between a family pet and a new baby.  At Zero 2 Five Markets there will be some information for you to take home with you.  Please also checkout the link below.
